IMI In 1852; a physician' by the name of Blumenau conceived the'idea of found ing a German ; colony on. the hanks of th 9 Itaguahi river, in Brain. dis 'trict selected was in the province of 'St: Catherine; 'a province 'which' pos sesses as fertile a soil as any in Brazil, and a climate resembling that of Spain awl Italy. A Rio de Janelro newspa . Per,tells us the result of Dr. Blumenau's - experiment: - • The growth of the colony has been very rapid. In 1861 there were 1,631 colonists, ,dlvided into 348 families; in 1865 the namberhad increased to 2,626. Nearly every tinnily has a coMfortable house.. The land . thoroughly tilled. ,The chief crops are tobaedo, sugar cane, .coffec,,arrow,root, ,cassava„ . sweet and ,Trish potatoes, corn and kidney beans. 'Several' arma are given up to cotton, 'and it has been ascertained that grapes 'and hops Can•be profitably cultivated. Th,us far the tobacco crop has proved the mest.,luerative, but the farmers .who hatie Cliesen to plant, coffee have no mit ten to ctimplain. Besides feeding them selves, the colonists exported produce in .I ; 865 Jo! the value of :90,000- • francs, 'or ia,eoc, - Ploy were also represented In - be Paris ExhibitiOn. '1 ~ , „ t , " i fhe colony Is not, hOwever, ' ntir_cly 'given up to agriculture. 'ln 1866'it 'con tained within its bounds tlfty-three su igaF ref4neries, sixty-one, stills, forty three grist mills, besides eider, vinegar and oil mills, and se}' - oral breweries.— To a German colony these last are in despensable. The success of this colony is not en tirely explained by the richness of the Boil or the proverbial thrift of German emigrants. A part of the credit is due to Dr. Illumentur and his coadjutorS. Their management of the colony "has been marred from the first by sterling ,good sense. They, have not paid any emigrant's passage-money unless he WaS'plainly unable to pay it for .111 such cases the money is ad vanced, to be repaid at a later time to the funds of the colony. They have inns at Rio do Janelyo, and at the vill age of the colony, Where immigrants arlodged and fed 'until they have se eted, their farms, or plots of ground, and built temporary houses. 'the land IA never given away, but it is sold at very low rates. It was surveyed, .so that the purohaser, need have no fears about the soundness . of his title. He has five years for the payment of the purchase moneY. 'After the colonist has cleared his ground and dug drains, some little time elapses before it becomes fit for cultya tion. During this interval he is em ployed by the colony, at good wages, on the roadS,'ok, at other works of gen eral utillity. When his ground becomes dry, the colony supplies him with seeds and t'arming, implements, . for which he is, expected to pay when he has money ()this own. ' • ' During the first six months of his res idehee in the colony he is entitled to the - gratitiotis service of a :physician speaking his own language. This gen tleman is the Board of Health of the colony, and discharges his duties in so efficient a Manner that the' general health is invariably preserved. Under this system the colonist is helped at every step, and yet left to de pend upon himself. He receives no rams. Loans are made to hiln out of the common fund, which he is to repay whenever, he becomes able. His suc cess depends upon, his diligence and ecOnomy. - Nearly all who have joined the colony have possessed these proper ties, and are now thrifty farmers own ing their own land. A few have proved lazy or vicious. These exceptional drones have nothing to expect fromAhe celOny. ' They sell their, titles, •live awhile on day wages, and leave Some fine morning for Rio de Janciro.—New York Post. i . . . .., y SIDEWALK ETIQUETTE.—OnIy vil ,t -gers, or Persons with rural ideas,py 1/2/ i longer contend that ladies shall al t , ays be given the inside of the pav meat in passing.

' The deelased was born in Bethany, Wayne ,county, Ppfinsylvaniti, where lie spent ino:A 01 his boyhood 'and' yduth. I,le "was edu cated at.the Bethany acadeay, and at Aurora, N. Y.

' Immediately upon his Advent here. fr. - Wilmot took a prominent position is a politician. Ile speedily became dentitied hl the local divisions of the 'arty in the County, taking the side of lie lactiou opposed to the leadership of i4en..llPKean. His ' commanding and .iersuasive eloqUence, and his boldness .t ud persistency, quickly gained him he position of a leader, and soon- broke t own the regime which for many years lad controlled the polities of the Coon . For several years he occupied a °amunting' position in the political i tfitirs of the County, and made a repo t ttion as an able and effective speaker, i of confined to this locality. In 1844, Mr. Wilmot received the 'm ai imous nomination of the Democracy o 'the 12th Congressional district, com p sed of the counties of Bradford, Tiog,a a id Susquehanna, and thereafter known a. the "Wilmot distriet, l !

On 'the 4th of August, .8 0, the President sent to the Senate a . itidential message, Informing that 1 dy that he had resolved on making r posals for opening a negotiation with I xico, and asking of Congress an ap ropriation of money to aid him in 11C- D ititing a peace.

Re w is Chairman of the Committee on itesol vtions, and drew up the ,platform adopt e d by that Convention. During that memorable critivass,'. his feelings were greatly aroused for the success Of the Pathfinder,. und his .eloquent voice was often heard on the side of Freedom. The Gubernatorial contest of , 18.57, was not:entered into With any hope of slice rss , but to fix the radical, anti-sla very sentitnent of the State. The Re publican party of the State had made a gallant fight for Fremont, and disclosed a wonderful degree ofsound public gen tinient, and it was that it might , not relapse back into conservatism, that Mr. tyli - not made the canvass for Governor. T 16. result justified his expectations, and, his labors thatT year did much to establish the Corrinionwealth on the side of Freedom. . ?In 1860 the North was thoroughly aroused by the pro-slavery outrages of the preceding years to Meet the aggres sors at the ballot-box. Mr. Wilmot's preferences were early expressed for Abraham Lincoln, as the most avail able candidate of thellepublican party for the Presidency. The State Convention declared for Gen. Cameron,- and Mt. Wilmot was selected by him as a Vdlegate at large, to the Chicago Convention. He was chosen temporary chairman of that or ganization, and when G6n. Cameron's name was withdrawn, had much influ ence in controlling the Pennsylvania delegation for Mr. Lincoln, thus •con tributing largpky, to his nomination. He enjoyed in a gpecial degree the confidence and regard of the. lamented Lincoln, during his Administration. Mr. Wilmot wigs appointed a delegate from Pennsylvania to the celebrated Peace Congress held at Washington in February, 1861, to devise sonic ,plan to" restore the quiet of the country, and save the Union. In the deliberation ,ot this body he was tin active participant. The selection of .Gen Cameron as .Secretary of War, by President Lincoln, created a vacancy in the U. S. Senate, to 1111 which, Mr. Wilmot was elected and took his-seat in that body March 18, 1861. A field of usefulness and honor was now opened before. hint, in which his friends confidently expected him to win for himself a ; still loftier mune, while engaged in advancing the cause of litumut rights. In thepritne of man hood, in the full vigor of his mental powers, revered everywhere as the champion of Freedom, the friends of humanity took new courage from . his presentee in the Seing 4 te. But at the outset of his Sena f terflife insidious disease laid its prostra 4-.1 ,. d upon him. His health g adua failed, if until it was almost impossible_ for him to attend to the routine of hiS Senato rial duties. He served two years fn the Senate, on the Committees oni,.Foreign Aflitirs, Claims had Pensions, find was succeeded in 1863, by Mr. Buckalew. At the conclusion of his Senatorial term ho was appointed by President Lincoln a Judge of the Court of Claims. which office he held up to his death. But few public men have achieved uch an enviable and wide,-spread rep-, Cation at so early an ago and with so little effort as Mr. Wilato.r. This was due, in a measure, perhaps, to eircum ,stances, but more to the man himself.— 'Possessed of n commanding' exterior, a •pollsbed address, and an eloquence and earnestness which never failed to corn- Mand attention and strike conviction to every hearer, was ebnibined abilities 'nl the very highest Order. Mr. Wflanyi was a profound thinker—his mind was exact and comprehensive. Be may lie said to haVe grasped a subject-intuitive ly. What other men acquire by pains , tapig, and studentilife came to him wfthout, labor, and apparently without effort. His peculiar formation of Mind enabledhlw at once to grasp a subject in all its, branches and details. He de• teAed instantly, all that was false and illogical :%in a proposition. The ease with which he Mastered subjects pre sented for his consideration, made him perhaps: unwilling- to' encounter that severe teil• which is necessary .in all great Men, who wish to reachTthe pin nacle or human fame.. , It may seem paradoxical thus to say that Mrf,.W.Ltzto'r was not a 'politician in the ordinary and Vulgar' acceptation of the term.

He despised the tricks of oral y political schemers, and instead of fon l ing combinations he relied upon the honesty add intelligence of the people.

All his tastes and'habits were opposed to the labor and. dry details of the practice of his professiolii, and his mind was much absorbed hi the more fayorite con sideration of political questions. But to the discussion) of legal quwtions, he brought that greht, intuitive acumen which at once,, probeda subject to the very depths.

Out6de Damascus, close by the- spot where tradition telLs_us: that St. Paul was lowered from the wall in the bas ket, and where the dragowens show, to' anybody who likes to believe them, the tomb of the identical ::St. Oeorge who killed the dragon, there is a sight which tew,travelers see, and fewer care to - talk about when they have seen it. There . is a little town outside the town—a, eort of subprban annexeewith wails of its , own, and a gateway, standing • about a bowshot from - the public road thatpass es towards the gate.- The only thing_ - which would attract attention -to the plage, besides its odd-isolation from the city proper, is ,the —Wide berth which everybody seems to give it. You do not 'see any of the brown Bedouin tents pitched near the spot. nor anybody go ing in or coining k out ; and it the goats or camels graze Coo near the mud walls,. the Syrian body in charge spits and shrieks out an Arab anathema upon all their collateral relations on the matern al side, which he enforces with a ,brok en pitcher, or-a palmstalk, on the re soundiug ribs of the offending cattle.— surprised' by this, you inquire, and you . learn that the lepers of Damascus live altogether in this little extramural en closure. That fact contents most trav elers ; but some, not having the fear of death or dikes() , before their eyes, or touched with pity for a class thus—per- Mips unnecessarily—cut - off' from hu man intercourse, have crept through the little gateway into this townlet of "Death in Lil." At first 'nothing whatever is sect but a little open space, -surrounded by low cottages of wattle and palm leaves, with a fewpitchersly-! lug about.
